[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid graduated from Northwestern, & has had several jobs (all on east coast) since graduating 8 years ago. Kid still often gets asked about which college he attended, & people are impressed with the Northwestern brand. Certainly there are some brilliant students at Maryland & some non-brilliant Northwestern grads, but having NU on the resume seems to generate an assumption of high intelligence until proven otherwise. That’s the edge you get in a situation like this. How much you value such an edge is up to the individual, but it’s a real thing. And I agree with what at least one previous poster said…the honors college thing won’t have much impact on getting hired. [/quote] northwestern in general does not result in much prestige in dmv. it sounds like a directional state school[/quote] Fact: more CEOs graduated from directional state schools than Ivy, Ivy+ and Ivy++ combined. Google it[/quote]
